READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
wWARNING: W
hen using this appliance,
always exercise basic safety precautions, including
the following:
• Use this appliance only for its intended purpose
as described in this Owner’s Manual.
• This refrigerator must be properly installed in
accordance with the Installation Instructions
before it is used.
• Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang
on the shelves in the refrigerator. They could
damage the refrigerator and seriously injure
themselves.
• Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer
compartment when hands are damp or wet.
Skin may adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
• In refrigerators with automatic icemakers,
avoid contact with moving parts of the ejector
mechanism, or with the heating element located
on the bottom of the icemaker. Do not place
fingers or hands on the automatic icemaking
mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.
• Keep fingers out of the “pinch point” areas:
clearances between the doors and between
the doors and cabinet are necessarily small.
Be careful closing doors when children are
in the area.
• Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning and
making repairs. NOTE: We strongly recommend
that any servicing be performed by a qualified
individual.
• Before replacing a burned-out light bulb,
the refrigerator should be unplugged in order
to avoid contact with a live wire filament.
(A burned-out light bulb may break when
being replaced.)
NOTE: Turning control to OFF does not remove
power to the light circuit.
• Do not refreeze frozen foods which have thawed
completely.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
w DANGER: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are
still dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a few
days.” If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator,
please follow the instructions below to help prevent
accidents.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator
or freezer:
• Take off the doors.
• Leave the shelves in place so that children
may not easily climb inside.
REFRIGERANTS
All refrigeration products contain refrigerants, which
under federal law must be removed prior to product
disposal.
If you are getting rid of an old refrigeration product,
check with the company handling the disposal
about what to do.

MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES
LIRE ET CONSERVER CES INSTRUCTIONS
w AVERTISSEMENT: L
orsque vous
utilisez le réfrigérateur, observez toujours certaines
précautions de base, notamment :
• N’utilisez le réfrigérateur que pour son usage
prévu, comme décrit dans le présent manuel.
• Installez le réfrigérateur conformément aux
directives d’installation avant de l’utiliser.
• Ne laissez pas les enfants grimper, s’asseoir,
se tenir debout ni se pendre aux clayettes
du réfrigérateur. Ils pourraient endommager
le réfrigérateur et se blesser gravement.
• Une fois le réfrigérateur en marche, ne touchez
pas les surfaces froides du congélateur, surtout
si vous avez les mains humides ou mouillées :
la peau risque d’adhérer à ces surfaces très
froides.
• N’entreposez et n’utilisez pas d’essence ou
autres vapeurs et liquides inflammables à
proximité de cet appareil ou de tout autre
appareil électroménager.
• Pour les réfrigérateurs dotés d’une machine
à glaçons automatique, évitez le contact avec
les pièces mobiles du mécanisme éjecteur,
ou avec l’élément chauffant situé à la partie
inférieure de la machine à glaçons. Ne posez
pas les doigts ou les mains sur le mécanisme
de la machine à glaçons pendant que
le réfrigérateur est branché.
• Éloignez les doigts des parties du réfrigérateur
où l’on peut facilement se pincer : les espaces
entre les portes et entre les portes et les placards
sont toujours étroits. Soyez prudent lorsque
vous fermez les portes de l’appareil en présence
des enfants.
• Débranchez votre réfrigérateur avant
de le nettoyer et de le réparer. REMARQUE : Nous
vous recommandons vivement de confier toute
réparation à un technicien qualifié.
• Avant de remplacer une ampoule grillée,
le réfrigérateur doit être débranché afin
d’éviter tout contact avec un fil sous tension.
(Une ampoule grillée peut se briser pendant
l’opération).
REMARQUE : Lorsque vous placez la commande
sur éteint, l’alimentation électrique de l’ampoule
n’est pas coupée.
• Ne faites pas recongeler des aliments surgelés
qui ont complètement dégelé.
w DANGER: RISQUES POUR LES ENFANTS
Les enfants pris au piège ou morts d’asphyxie sont
toujours d’actualité. Les appareils de réfrigération
abandonés sont toujours aussi dangereux, même
si on n’attend que “quelque jours” pour s’en
débarasser. Si vous ne gardez pas votre ancien
appareil, veuillez suivre les directives ci-dessous
afin de prévenir les accidents.
Avant de vous débarasser de votre vieux
appareil de réfrigération :
• Démontez les portes.
• Laissez les clayettes en place afin d’empêcher
les enfants de grimper à l’intérieur.
REFRIGERANTS
Tous les appareils de réfrigération contiennent
des refrigerants qui, conformément aux lois
fédérales, doivent être enlevés avant toute
élimination de l’appareil.
Si vous vous débarrassez de vieux appareils de
réfrigération, vérifiez, auprès de la société qui
s’occupe de leur élimination, ce que vous
devez faire.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove
the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
F
or personal safety, this appliance must be
properly grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped
with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates
with a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet
to minimize the possibility of electric shock
hazard from this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by
a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet
is properly grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is
encountered, it is your personal responsibility
and obligation to have it replaced with a
properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
The refrigerator should always be plugged into
its own individual electrical outlet which has
a voltage rating that matches the rating plate.
This provides the best performance and also
prevents overloading house wiring circuits which
c
ould cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling
on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly
and pull straight out from the outlet.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords
that have become frayed or otherwise damaged.
Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion
damage along its length or at either end.
When moving the refrigerator away from the wall,
be careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
Because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions, we strongly recommend
against the use of an extension cord.
However, if you must use an extension cord, it is
absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed, 3-wire
grounding type appliance extension cord having
a grounding type plug and outlet and that
the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes
(minimum) and 120 volts.

Temperature
controls
The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 37°F
for the fresh food compartment and 0°F for the freezer
compartment. Allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize
to the preset recommended settings.
The temperature controls can display both the SET temperature
as well as the actual temperature in the fresh food and freezer
compartments. The actual temperature may vary slightly
from the SET temperature based on usage and operating
environment.
Setting either or both controls to OFF stops cooling in both
the freezer and fresh food compartments but does not shut
off electrical power to the refrigerator.
NOTE: The refrigerator is shipped with protective film covering
the temperature controls. If this film was not removed during
installation, remove it now.
To change the temperature, press and release
the (warmer) or (colder) pad. The SET light
will come on and the display will show the set
temperature. To change the temperature, tap
either the (warmer) or (colder) pad until
the desired temperature is displayed. Fresh food
temperatures can be adjusted between 34°F
and 44°F and the freezer temperatures can be
adjusted between -6°F and +6°F.
Once the desired temperature has been
set, the temperature display will return to
the actual fresh food and freezer temperatures
after 5 seconds. Several adjustments may
be required. Each time you adjust controls,
allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach
the temperature you have set.
To turn the cooling system off, tap
the (warmer) pad for either the fresh food
compartment or the freezer until the display
shows OFF. To turn the unit back on, press
the (colder) pad for either the fresh food
compartment or freezer. The SET light will
illuminate on the side you selected. Then press
the (colder) pad again (on the side where
the SET light is illuminated) and it will go to
the preset points of 0°F for the freezer and 37°F
for the fresh food compartment.

works
T
urboCool rapidly cools
the refrigerator compartment in
order to more quickly cool foods.
Use TurboCool when adding
a large amount of food to the refrigerator
compartment, putting away foods after they
have been sitting out at room temperature
or when putting away warm leftovers. It can
also be used if the refrigerator has been
without power for an extended period.
O
nce activated, the compressor will turn on
immediately and the fans will cycle on and
off at high speed as needed for 8 hours.
The compressor will continue to run until
the refrigerator compartment cools to
approximately 34°F (1°C), then it will cycle
on and off to maintain this setting. After
8 hours, or if TURBOCOOL is pressed again,
the refrigerator compartment will return
to the original setting.

When the refrigerator has been connected
to the water supply, set the power switch
to the l (on) position. The icemaker power light
will turn green when the freezer light switch is
pressed in or when the freezer door is closed.
The icemaker will fill with water when it cools to
15°F (–10°C). A newly installed refrigerator may
take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice cubes.
You will hear a buzzing sound each time
the icemaker fills with water.
Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow
the water line to clear.
Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep
of the feeler arm.
When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm,
the icemaker will stop producing ice. It is normal
for several cubes to be joined together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will
become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.
NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water
pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle
multiple times when making one batch of ice.
NOTE: Set the power switch to the O (off) position
if the water supply is shut off.

Care and Cleaning
Stainless Steel Refrigerator
T
he stainless steel panels and handles can be
cleaned with a commercially available stainless
steel cleaner such as Stainless Steel Magic™.
Stainless Steel Magic is available at Ace, True
Value, Servistar, HWI and other leading stores.
I
t is also available through GE Parts and
Accessories, 800.626.2002. Order part number
WX10X15.
Do not use appliance wax or polish
on the stainless steel.
Cleaning
the outside
To help prevent odors, leave an open box
of baking soda in the fresh food and freezer
compartments.
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning.
If this is not practical, wring excess moisture
out of sponge or cloth when cleaning around
switches, lights or controls.
Use warm water and baking soda solution—
about a tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda to
a quart (1 liter) of water. This both cleans and
neutralizes odors. Rinse and wipe dry.
Use of any cleaning solution other than
that which is recommended, especially those
that contain petroleum distillates, can crack
or damage the interior of the refrigerator.
Avoid cleaning cold glass shelves with hot
water because the extreme temperature
difference may cause them to break. Handle
glass shelves carefully. Bumping tempered
glass can cause it to shatter.
Do not wash any plastic refrigerator parts
in the dishwasher.
Cleaning
the inside
Be careful when moving the refrigerator away
from the wall. All types of floor coverings can be
damaged, particularly cushioned coverings and
those with embossed surfaces.
Pull the refrigerator straight out and return it
to position by pushing it straight in. Moving
the refrigerator in a side direction may result
in damage to the floor covering or refrigerator.
When pushing the refrigerator back, make sure
you don’t roll over the power cord or icemaker
supply line.
Behind the
refrigerator
For long vacations or absences, remove food
and unplug the refrigerator. Clean the interior
with a baking soda solution of one tablespoon
(15 ml) of baking soda to one quart (1 liter)
of water. Leave the doors open.
Set the icemaker power switch to the O (off)
position and shut off the water supply to
the refrigerator.
If the temperature can drop below freezing,
have a qualified servicer drain the water supply
system to prevent serious property damage due
to flooding.
Preparing
for vacation
Secure all loose items such as shelves and
drawers by taping them securely in place
to prevent damage.
When using a hand truck to move the refrigerator,
do not rest the front or back of the refrigerator
against the hand truck. This could damage
the refrigerator. Handle only from the sides
of the refrigerator.
Be sure the refrigerator stays in an upright
position during moving.
Preparing
to move
CAUTION: Light bulbs may be hot.
Setting the controls to OFF does not remove
power to the light circuit.
1 Unplug the refrigerator.
2 Remove the freezer basket for access. The bulb is
located at the rear of the freezer inside a light
shield.
3 To remove, grasp the shield at the top and pull out
to release the tabs at the bottom.
4 After replacing with an appliance bulb of the
same or lower wattage, replace
the shield and freezer basket.
5 Plug the refrigerator back in.

• You may hear cracking or popping sounds
when the refrigerator is first plugged in.
This happens as the refrigerator cools
to the correct temperature.
• Electronic dampers click open and closed to
provide optimal cooling and energy savings.
• The compressor may cause a clicking or
chirping sound when attempting to restart
(this could take up to 5 minutes).
• The electronic control board may cause
a clicking sound when relays activate
to control refrigerator components.
• Expansion and contraction of cooling coils
during and after defrost can cause a cracking
or popping sound.
• After an icemaking cycle, you may hear
the ice cubes dropping into the ice bucket.
• The flow of refrigerant through the freezer
cooling coils may make a gurgling noise like
boiling water.
• Water dropping on the defrost heater can
cause a sizzling, popping or buzzing sound
during the defrost cycle.
• A water dripping noise may occur
during the defrost cycle as ice melts from
the evaporator and flows into the drain pan.
• Closing the door may cause a gurgling sound
due to pressure equalization.

• The new high efficiency compressor may run
faster and longer than your old refrigerator
and you may hear a high-pitched hum or
pulsating sound while it is operating.
• Sometimes the refrigerator runs for an
extended period, especially when the doors
are opened frequently. This means that
the Frost Guard
™
feature is working
to prevent freezer burn and improve
food preservation.
• You may hear a whooshing sound when
the doors close. This is due to pressure
equalizing within the refrigerator.
• You may hear the fans spinning at high
speeds. This happens when the refrigerator
is first plugged in, when the doors are opened
frequently or when a large amount of food
is added to the refrigerator or freezer
compartments. The fans are helping
to maintain the correct temperatures.
• If either door is open for over 3 minutes,
you may hear the fans come on in order
to cool the light bulbs.
• The fans change speeds in order to provide
optimal cooling and energy savings.
